Another photo we have of Smee saying hello Goofy came over as well later on. I believe Dale was the one who came over and gave high fives to the kids.

More Parade Photos This is the moment Belle noticed that Makayla was wearing her dress. Makayla was very excited that she noticed. I can't overstate how cool it was to be the seated on the only side where seating was allowed. This meant that we got 100% of the characters'...

If you've read some of my prior trip reports, you know that our family loves the MK parade. I believe we've seen it every year we've gone with Luke and Makayla. The last couple years, we had done the Tony's Parade dining package for the reserved seats right in the flagpole hub inside the main...

Well in fairness Bruce is not moving and making scary noises 😜 . thanks for following. that is funny. I didn't notice the terrified look until you said something. I always wonder how many times I appear in someone else's photos.

Once we had finished our yummy waffle, we had a bit of a disagreement on what to do next. Makayla really wanted to see Carousel of Progress and see the puppy in the show. Luke really did NOT want to do this. He wanted to do the speedway. We decided we would split up once again. I took Luke...

We woke up on Sunday and it was our Magic Kingdom day. We decided to try MK on a Sunday since they were having a party that night and closing early, we figured the crowds might be at a lower level. Makayla was so excited as we got ready, she kept repeating over and over that she couldn't wait...

Thank you! Sara was EXTREMELY excited to wear the matching dresses. Thank you for following along. Yes, I've heard from a couple people about that, so it sounds like it's pretty common. Thank you for following along. Not too late, we've just gotten the first day done.

Thank you for the compliments. I hope you have a great time when you go. The bubble wands are definitely winners.

We decided to go into Future World as World Showcase was pretty crowded with Food and Wine fun. Before we left though Sara snapped a cool sunset photo from Mexico. Luke was very interested in playing in the leaping fountains near the Imagination Pavilion, but unfortunately that area was...

We made our way to the entrance of Epcot. Once inside, I was amazed at the amount of construction walls up. I had read about all the work they were doing in future world, but nothing prepared me for this. All the Leave a Legacy rocks were down, which Luke noticed immediately. There was a...

I set an alarm following our nap to wake us up with a little extra time so that we could have some pool time. It was SOOOOO nice having the pool right outside our hotel. We woke up and 5 minutes later we were hopping in the pool. I must say the pool was pretty cold. Of course Luke and...

Haha thanks. I don't get a lot of sympathy inside my house on this one :) I'm horrible at spotting people in crowds. I could have walked past you 3 times without recognizing. Thanks for following along. Yes, definitely wasn't too late of a start. A few times later in the week we got...

Our final fastpass was for the Frozen Sing Along. It was a short walk from the restaurant over to the theater. Luke has fully reached elementary school boy stage, so he was not happy that he was being taken in to watch a Frozen show. He ended up enjoying it in the end, as he really liked some...

We did a little exploring around the Muppet Courtyard. Then it was time for our Star Tours fastpass. We entered Star Tours just as the Jedi Training Academy was taking place, so both kids wanted to stop and watch it. We stayed for a minute or two then corralled them forward. It...

We came to a relatively open area where there was a photographer standing, so we decided once again to stop for a pic. Unfortunately we were looking into the sun, which led to some awkward faces. Special Effects!!! A few more photos as we made our way out. As we were leaving...

Full disclosure here, I'm not the biggest Star Wars fan. I like the movies and have seen them all, but I haven't watched all the different TV shows and read the books and comics like some I know. I had people in my office who were surprised that I was sort of "eh" when they asked if I was...

We had the option of meeting Jesse, Woody, and Bo Peep, but Makayla did not want to meet any characters. Still not a big fan of them. We decided to head to Midway Mania since it was also showing as a walk on. Nice Makayla pic and crazy brother. Midway mania was fun, and not to brag or...

We made it into HS without any hassle. I would guess it was around 8:30 when we made it in. I guess the early opening time was only for resort guests as there was a line forming to the right side of the entrance of people waiting to enter. We calmly made our way in on the left. Very few...

Thank you, yes we had a great time!!!

A couple weeks before our trip, Disney had announced they were opening most parks (not Epcot) at 6am, to coincide with the opening of the new Star Wars land. 6am is is super early, but we figured we were up for it. Get to the parks early, ride a ton of rides, then go back to the resort and...
